Chapter 294: Chapter 30: Shadow of the Demon

For Ge Niancheng, this was the best opportunity for revenge.

If he missed this chance, taking revenge wouldn’t be so easy anymore.

"Li Sheng..."

Ever since Li Sheng had perished in the White Mist years ago, Ge Niancheng had always come to this very mist.

Sometimes, he would sit there for three or four hours.

As a child, Shen Lisheng had been Ge Niancheng’s best friend. Li Sheng’s disposition was too gentle, so gentle that some people saw it as a weakness. Initially, Su Wenxin had liked Shen Lisheng for his simple nature, but once in the city, her heart obviously changed.

Ten years ago that night, He Yun had entered the scene of Shen Lisheng and Su Wenxin’s engagement party alone, leaving Li Sheng’s heart ashen.

If it had only been a change of affection, it could have been forgiven. But... to kill Li Sheng, that was something Ge Niancheng could never forgive.

Tonight was the perfect opportunity!

He signaled to his teammates with a look.

Even if "Lu Zhengqiang" joined forces with them, they were 6 vs 3, still overwhelmingly advantageous. And he had intentionally separated those three, shoving He Yun into the mist first!

In front of He Yun was Long Zhiqiang, and behind was Lu Rui. The two of them pinned him down, He Yun was no match for them. They had both grown up doing farm work and were strong; they were certainly not the kind of delicate features that He Yun possessed.

This was the very reason he adamantly refused to let Lu Rui switch positions.

"Li Sheng, this time, I can avenge you!"

Long Zhiqiang and Lu Rui naturally both saw Ge Niancheng’s signal too.

Meanwhile, the male teammate Zhang Wei walking behind Dai Lin started to close the distance to him, to forestall any sudden moves from "Lu Zhengqiang".

Compared to them, Su Wenxin, being a woman, could be dealt with last.

Preparing for his first murder, Ge Niancheng was fairly nervous.

Had it been ten years earlier, he might not have had such courage. But in those ten years, the village had been sealed by the White Mist, turning it into a lawless place through and through.

It could be said that the order of the village was barely maintained by his father, Ge Pingyan. Without his father, the village would quickly fall into complete chaos.

Ge Niancheng had soberly recognized a reality: they could never leave Nanmian Village. Moreover, as the mist continued to spread into the interior of the village, how long they could survive was a question.

If that was the case... at least he must take revenge for Li Sheng! A man should live for the pleasure of rewarding favors and avenging wrongs! Only in this way could he face Shen Uncle!

Lu Rui started to approach He Yun in front of him, while Zhang Wei kept a close watch on Dai Lin.

At this moment, the blizzard was enveloping the sky, and there was no movement inside the mist.

This was the best moment to act!

He couldn’t wait any longer!

Ge Niancheng took a deep breath, feeling a burst of cold air rushing back into his lungs.

Li Sheng!

Watch closely!

He quickly lifted his right hand slightly and then clenched it!

The signal to act!

Long Zhiqiang immediately turned back, and by this time, he had switched his bamboo pole to his left hand and lunged at He Yun!

Lu Rui also took a leaping step forward, grabbing He Yun from behind with a firm grip!

The two of them, Long and Lu, restrained He Yun and then fiercely pushed him toward the White Mist!

Dai Lin had observed this entire scene very clearly!

He certainly wouldn’t tolerate someone using a curse to kill another in front of him!

Moreover, since He Yun knew the secrets of 666 Hospital, how could Dai Lin allow him to perish here now?

Dai Lin’s eyes suddenly widened as he looked at Long Zhiqiang, rapidly extracting his soul from his body!

To kill again... and this time, not a Paranormal Doctor, but an ordinary human, Dai Lin felt not the slightest emotion. Not to mention the vomiting often associated with a first-time murderer as mentioned in books.

It seemed that as time passed, the will of the Devil’s Eye was slowly changing Dai Lin’s nature, making him now so decisive in killing without a sliver of mercy or hesitation!

"Huh?"

Lu Rui, with his back to Dai Lin, wasn’t directly soul-seized by Dai Lin’s gaze, but he was completely stupefied, wondering why Long Zhiqiang had suddenly collapsed?

"He Yun!"

Su Wenxin at the back of the group shouted, wanting to rush over but was restrained by the people behind.

Zhang Wei was going to restrain Dai Lin, but seeing Dai Lin motionless, he didn’t proceed.

He Yun turned around and struck with his elbow, hitting Lu Rui’s jaw hard. Lu Rui saw stars, slipped, and quickly fell into the White Mist!

Dai Lin watched this scene and immediately peered into the White Mist!

Lu Rui, who had fallen into the mist, soon let out a piercing scream, but then...

Dai Lin saw that although Lu Rui desperately tried to escape from the mist, he was just treading in place!

Soon, within the depths of the White Mist, another shadowy figure began to emerge.

Lu Rui, within the dense fog, naturally couldn’t see the outline of the dark shadow, and he continued to shuffle in place, attempting to escape.

"Lu Rui! Zhiqiang!"

Ge Nian Cheng watched this scene unfold, completely dumbfounded, as he desperately yelled into the thick fog.

To enter the White Mist was to embark on a road to certain death!

He grabbed a bamboo pole and extended it into the area where Lu Rui had fallen.

Then...

An eerie sound emanated from within the fog.

It was as if something was being torn apart.

Only Dai Lin could see what was happening inside the fog.

The dark shadow began to tear open from the middle.

The splitting shadow continued to draw near to Lu Rui.

The porcelain doll that Ge Nian Cheng had extended with the bamboo pole had no effect on it.

Lu Rui was completely unaware of what was happening.

Dai Lin’s eyes locked onto the shadow that was approaching Lu Rui inside the thick fog.

After that...

He attacked with his left eye!

The shadow that had split open was immediately repelled.

But, eyeing Lu Rui as its prey, the shadow seemed "relentless" and continued to edge closer to him step by step!

Dai Lin clenched his teeth and continued to leverage his left eye.

In the center of his left eyeball, cracks began to appear, and through the breaking fissures, some kind of darkness started to emerge.

After that...

The dark shadow behind Lu Rui finally began to retreat bit by bit.

Just as Dai Lin thought everything had ended, more shadows appeared from deeper within the White Mist—varying in height and size!

Dai Lin’s expression grew increasingly grim.

Ten... dozens...

Like sharks sensing blood, countless shadows surged toward Lu Rui!

Naturally, Dai Lin didn’t have the ability to deal with so many shadows.

Even using his right eye, his trump card, would be no different.

Not all shadows would tear bodies apart; some twisted their forms, some crawled along the ground, and some even walked as if two bodies had been stitched together.

Lu Rui was finally swallowed by the shadows and dragged deeper into the White Mist.

In that moment, Dai Lin sensed... something even more terrifying hidden in the depths of the White Mist.

This was perceived by the Devil’s Eye!

Then, one of the shadows began to approach from outside the White Mist and gradually... morphed into Lu Rui’s likeness!

But by this time, this "Lu Rui" grabbed the bamboo pole and then bit down on the porcelain doll’s head!

Subsequently, the entire porcelain doll was swallowed by it!

In that instant, Ge Nian Cheng could also sense something holding onto the bamboo pole.

"Lu Rui! Is that you? Answer me!"

After swallowing the doll’s head, "Lu Rui’s" body slowly reverted back to the shadow’s outline. Then, little by little, it began to retreat, sinking back into the depths of the White Mist...

When Ge Nian Cheng pulled the bamboo pole out, he saw the headless porcelain doll and his face also looked terrible.

"This... this..."

"You really wanted to kill me, Ge Nian Cheng!" He Yun glared at Ge Nian Cheng with hatred, bellowing.

Ge Nian Cheng turned around, coldly looking at He Yun who had pushed Lu Rui in.

At this juncture, he walked over to Long Zhiqiang’s body, felt his pulse, and realized he too was dead.

"You... What did you do, He Yun?"

Ge Nian Cheng glared at He Yun with animosity.

"Fine, fine, fine... since it has come to this, I’ll put everything on the line. He Yun, you won’t live to finish the night patrol tonight!"

Dai Lin’s eyes were fixed on Ge Nian Cheng.

If this man refused to see reason, causing infighting in such a situation, then Dai Lin would have no choice but to take his life!

"What are you standing around for? Go! Push He Yun and Su Wenxin into the mist!!!"
